Access Issue: Do not climb after rain!
Details
Like many areas in the desert, the soft Dakota sandstone here is very fragile and porous, and especially so after recent rainfall - climbs could be permanently damaged or destroyed if climbed on while wet. Additionally, avoid using a wire brush to clean off lichen.
Description
This boulder houses a decent warm-up along with some steep, sandy slab problems.
Getting There
It is 20 feet uphill and to the right of the Patina Boulder and 50 feet uphill from the main boulder.
